The Geffrye Museum is a small/medium beautiful museum about the home and the way people live. It is located near Hoxton Station, East London. The collections shows how homes have been used and furnished over the past 400 years, reflecting changes in society and behaviour as well as style, fashion and taste. It's fascinating and a journey through time! The plus is that the museum has a wonderful garden and different from the other London's museums, it's not busy and it's cosy feeling makes you feel like you are in a different part of England.

If you are into interior design or you want to learn a bit more about history and houses in a more interactive way, you are going to love this little gem. You can see the interiors of England Houses and get inspired by the old furnitures and designs.
I've heard that the best time to visit is on December, when they decorate all the rooms based on the traditions of the different periods. Check some of my photos and discover this beautiful place:
